SUMMARY:The Pedro Giraudo Quartet — Contemporary Tango
DESCRIPTION:The Pedro Giraudo Quartet opens the evening with contemporary tango led by Latin GRAMMY Award–winning bassist and composer Pedro Giraudo\, blending Argentine tradition with modern energy\, lyrical depth\, and expressive improvisation. \n7:00 pm to 8:00 pm (First Set) \n9:00 pm to 10:00 pm (Second Set) \nAdmission: $20 Cover charge Mezzanine \nFeaturing: \n\n\nNicolás Danielson – violin \n\n\nRodrigo Ávalos – bandoneón \n\n\nMartha Kato – piano \n\n\nPedro Giraudo – bass \n\n\nAbout Pedro Giraudo: \nLatin GRAMMY Award–winning bassist and composer Pedro Giraudo is one of the most compelling voices in contemporary tango. A native of Argentina and long based in New York\, Giraudo has become an active cultural ambassador of tango\, expanding its language while honoring its deep tradition. \nAfter two decades performing with some of the most important interpreters of tango\, he debuted his own Tango Orchestra at Lincoln Center’s Midsummer Night Swing in 2015\, establishing himself as a leading figure in the global tango scene. His 2018 album Vigor Tanguero won the Latin GRAMMY Award for Best Tango Album. In 2014\, he recorded bass on Rubén Blades’ Tangos\, which won both a Grammy and a Latin Grammy. \nGiraudo has collaborated with an extraordinary range of artists including Pablo Ziegler\, Paquito D’Rivera\, Branford Marsalis\, Kenny Garrett\, Regina Carter\, Miguel Zenón\, and William Cepeda\, among many others. He has performed at major venues worldwide including Carnegie Hall\, Lincoln Center\, the Kennedy Center\, the Blue Note (USA & Japan)\, Birdland\, and London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall. \nAs a composer and arranger\, Giraudo bridges Argentine tango\, classical forms\, and jazz improvisation with striking orchestral depth. He has conducted the WDR Big Band and the Cologne Contemporary Jazz Orchestra\, and has been commissioned by major cultural institutions to create new works celebrating Argentine and Afro-Argentine heritage. \nHis work reflects both mastery of tradition and fearless contemporary exploration. \nAbout Pedro Giraudo Quartet: \nThe Pedro Giraudo Quartet represents the evolution of tango in its most intimate and dynamic form. Drawing from the traditional orquesta típica\, the transformative language of Astor Piazzolla’s tango nuevo\, and contemporary compositional approaches\, the quartet offers a sound that is both rooted and forward-looking. \nThrough lush harmonies\, intricate counterpoint\, and passionate improvisation\, the ensemble reimagines tango as a living\, breathing art form. Giraudo’s compositions and arrangements create a dialogue between Argentine tradition and modern jazz sensibilities\, preserving the emotional depth and rhythmic intensity of tango while expanding its expressive possibilities. \nThe quartet’s performances balance refinement and fire\, honoring the past while embracing the future of tango on the international stage.

SUMMARY:Bright Vignettes: How Astoria Got its Pride
DESCRIPTION:Join LPAC for a free screening of Bright Vignettes – How Astoria Got its Pride at Stuart Cinema and Cafe! \nThe first film about Astoria’s Queer culture begins outdoors in the playful sensorium of a historical cruising site from the 1800s onward\, and ends in a Queer club with a call to action for the most vulnerable\, five months before the 2024 presidential election in the U.S. New York City is home to The Stonewall Inn\, the site of a protest in June of 1969 that galvanized the LGBTQ+ rights movement in the U.S. In this same city\, there are neighborhoods celebrating their first public Pride events into the 2020s. This is the Queer side of one of those neighborhoods. \nAs anti-LGBTQ+ legislation in the United States reaches unprecedented levels of implementation\, Astoria felt the ramifications: burning a Pride flag outside its longest-running Queer bar in 2024; breaking the window of a new Queer bar in 2024; hateful comments on the public Instagram page for Astoria’s Annual Pride event in 2023; as well as ad hominem attacks documented in local news. Starting with the achievements and activity leading up to the neighborhood’s inaugural Pride event in 2023\, Bright Vignettes portrays this vibrant\, nurturing community of experimental performers\, and progressive activists making this neighborhood “…a place to grow old in…and pass down our stories\, and our cultures.”
